Comments on: Morocco: Changing Nothing and Everything http://globalvoicesonline.org/2009/07/14/morocco-changing-nothing-and-everything/ The world is talking. Are you listening? Wed, 30 May 2012 14:55:52 -0400 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: redouane http://globalvoicesonline.org/2009/07/14/morocco-changing-nothing-and-everything/comment-page-1/#comment-1575253 redouane Thu, 06 Aug 2009 14:38:56 +0000 http://globalvoicesonline.org/?p=85294#comment-1575253 All these blogs reflect what has been a fact for 50 years,the perenial impossibility of the Moroccan society to reach its aspirations which will come only through change. People in Morocco are self-deceptive at best. They say they want change but they want the changes that suit them only. It seems that they cannot approach their view outside of their immediate world. They want to be given a piece of the pie without even working for it. As if the only way to satisfaction is to usher in a redeemer of sort who can save them. M6 was thought to be a redeemer for the sins of his father, but I do not think he could or will even handle the sins of the society itself. It is a much deeper than want the blogs seems to be singing. The people who are in the position of distributing the pies, give them on conditions that the pie eaters be in perpetual servitude. Moroccan society suffers from deep seated symbolic domination and servitude of all against all. Symbolic means it comes from the culture of alienation, self-hatred and predation.

The window of opportunity that has opened in the late 90s has been squandered and the established power has gained confidence and strength, whilst the progressive camp after being decimated by decades of oppression lacked the vision and leadership that could have inspired the young, change-thirsty generation of Moroccans. The blogs you quoted Jillian, reflect quite candidly that state of affairs. There is surely a sense of lost opportunity amongst many countrymen/women I know.
